Little light, are you listening?

Little light, I have so much to show you

I'm a house with the light on

On the path when you’re walking in darkness

Your clothes might be dirty and covered with blood

But I'll still have a hot meal here waiting

And you have a spirit that holds like a hand

And your heart is a safe place for others to land

Just remember this one thing and you'll make me proud:

Second chances are always allowed

Little light people see you

As a person that they can look up to

They will come with their questions

Even when you don’t have any answers

I ask you to look past their dirt and their blood —

A hot bath and forgiveness are weighty

And you have two hands made to raise others up

And you have two clear eyes to see others with love

When they call you for guidance, make sure that you know:

Second chances will help them to grow

But a fire unfed can grow dim

Betrayal can steal all the kindling within

The choices of family and friends disappoint

And it's always your job to be bigger than them

You are tired, you're feeling unsure

You don't know if you're all that good anymore

You want to hold onto your anger a while

‘Cause you're built to hold everyone else's

But this one is yours

Little light, are you listening?

Little light, just look up, I'm beside you

You don’t need to be perfect

Even when you’re surrounded by dark

You see paths that need lighting, including your own

And I'm there with my arms open, waiting

And you have a purpose — it’s hard and it's grand

But I'll always be holding your heart and your hand

When you rebuild my temple, it's true even now:

Second chances are always allowed
